Using OpenCV for Simple Object Detection

As part of the Blue Block Challenge I’m using the OpenCV library to detect and track objects based on their color only. In the process I created an Mac application to help develop the algorithms.

Building Zumo – Part IV

Finally completed the Zumo build, code and all. It was way more work than I bargained for.

Ended up adding a second microprocessor (The Trinket) to handle sensor and servo functions, implemented an I2C slave and wrangled new interrupt-driven servo code.

Servorator

Servorator is an open source Arduino library, providing sophisticated speed control for servos, that I wrote for my Robix arm project in order to creating smoother movements.
